 Posted: Mon Jan 31, 2011 6:10 pm Post subject: How many hooks allowed per line??? |
 |
|
I dont have any ice fishing jigs and was curious about using my herring rigs through the ice. Just not sure how legal that is because of the 5 hooks. But i imagine it would work well and cover a few feet of water.. I will cut off the extra hooks that make the rig illegal if that's the case.
Thanks in advance. |

From the 2011 angler's guide:
ICE FISHING - Not more than six tip-ups, floats (bobbers), similar devices,
or hand-held jigs or any combination thereof not exceeding six in the
aggregate may be used at one time. Persons under sixteen years of age
may use not more than two devices. Not more than three baited hooks,
with or without attractors, or three ice flies, or three artificial lures, or
any combination thereof not exceeding three in the aggregate may be
used with each tip-up, float (bobber), or similar device or hand-held
jig. Devices must be personally attended. The name and address of the
user must be legibly stamped on or attached to all devices.
I'm guessing if you don't bait all 5 hooks and there are no other lures or attractors on the hooks you'd be legal...but I'm not positive on that. |
